How to Contribute Icons

This project does not take pull requests as all icon designs go through community approval and design changes before being added.

Please follow the guides below while contribiting. We follow a 1 issue per icon request policy.

I Have an Icon Idea!

Awesome, please take a moment to search for the icon.

Icon Request Exists Already

So the icon request was created by someone else. You can do a few things to get our attention.

  • Use the reaction button to upvote/downvote the first comment and any designs people have posted.
    • Don't feel bad about downvoting a design from a contributor, we're all use to it by now.
  • Comment with example images (you can paste images in your comments).
    • Examples help our design contributors more accurately dipict the request.

Icon Request Does Not Exist Yet

So it's a unique request and the issue doesn't exist.

  • 1 Icon Request per issue
  • Click the new issue button.
  • The title of the issue should simply be the icon name home, theater, etc.
  • The description should contain some context of where the icon will be used and the general look
    • You can paste reference images inline to give us a better idea.

I'm an Icon Designer

Also awesome, please take a minute to search through the existing issues.

Issue exists already / made an icon for an issue

Please post in the issue by attaching a .zip of the .svg file. Wait for the contribution team to reply (usually @Templarian also).

I think I designed a better version of an existing icon

The contribution team loves these as we've replaced a lot of icons over the years. Some of the Google stock icons have gotten tweaks. Almost always @Templarian will review these. Attach a .zip with the .svg.

No similar issue exists

Follow the same guidelines as submitting an icon request from above ('Icon Request Does Not Exist Yet' section). Attach a .zip with the .svg.

A Note on Brand Icons

Please know that social media icons or largely used products are the only brand icons we allow. Thanks for understanding.
